China’s Covid Restrictions Are Forcing Farmers to Destroy Crops

 

China’s strict Covid controls are leaving farmers with no option other than to destroy crops they can no longer sell, triggering concerns about food shortages and stirring outrage on social media. 

Videos circulating online show farmers dumping healthy crops because they’re struggling to sell their harvest. Local and state media also reported that fields of vegetables are being destroyed in major producing regions such as Shandong and Henan provinces to make way for the sowing of the next crop.
